University of Wisconsin Milwaukee School of Freshwater Sciences

For 50 years, UWM has maintained the largest academic research institute on the Great Lakes. From our location we have studied the largest freshwater system on the Earth’s surface, as well as urban rivers, storm- and wastewater infrastructure, groundwater and inland lakes, aquaculture and fisheries, water robotics, and human and environmental health. The School of Freshwater Sciences offers the ideal location to study and research water in all its complexities.
